The Sacramento Kings (28-27) will play host to the Golden State Warriors (28-27) at Golden 1 Center in Friday's NBA clash. The Kings are ninth in the Western Conference, while the Warriors are tenth. Here's our match prediction. 

The Sacramento Kings completed their three-game road trip with a disappointing 140-133 defeat against the New Orleans Pelicans—the second night of a back-to-back against the same team.

That was the Kings first defeat after enjoying a three-match winning streak in the league. Their performance, though, has been a rollercoaster boasting a 3-3 record in their last six games.

They set foot at Golden 1 Center, a venue where they've performed to expectations recently. Orlando Magic is the only team that has managed to beat them in their last nine home games (W8).

The Golden State Warriors are playing their last match of a seven-game road trip. In their last six matches, they have recorded three wins and three losses.

The Warriors recently beat the Houston Rockets 105-98 on the second night of a back-to-back. Also, confidence should be high, as that triumph marked their third win in four outings.

The visitors have been unlucky in this fixture recently. They've yet to win in their last two matches this season and head into this clash seeking to stop the rot.
